Step into a deeply rewarding opportunity as a Licensed Practical Nurse specializing in Long-Term Care, commencing on 12/14/2025 for a multi-week assignment in Elkins, West Virginia. In this role you will stand at the heart of compassionate geriatric care, guiding residents through daily routines with respect, comfort, and dignity. Your hands will bring reassurance during med administration, daily assessments, and thoughtful care that preserves independence and quality of life. Each shift offers the chance to build meaningful connections, celebrate small victories, and witness patients flourish under attentive, person-centered support. The Mountain State’s beauty provides a fitting backdrop for your daily work: lush forests, rolling ridges, and tranquil towns set in a landscape that invites exploration. West Virginia’s allure extends beyond its scenery—historic communities, friendly neighbors, and a culture that values care and resilience. For those who crave opportunity beyond a single location, our program offers pathways to work across various sites in the United States, enabling you to broaden your clinical practice while maintaining the compassionate core that defines long-term care.
Elkins sits as a gateway to the best of West Virginia’s outdoor offerings, from hiking along scenic ridges to easy access to rivers and parks, all within a supportive, close-knit community. The region’s affordability and accessibility make it an appealing base for dedicated caregiving professionals who cherish meaningful resident interaction and steady, predictable schedules. If you’d like to experience a broader horizon, our travel-oriented program enables assignments in diverse settings across the U.S., delivering variety in patient populations, facilities, and care models while keeping a consistent emphasis on safety, professionalism, and personal growth. You’ll enjoy the balance of a welcoming local environment and the excitement of new locations, all anchored by a robust support system designed for traveling healthcare teams.
As an LPN in Long-Term Care, you’ll collaborate with RNs and interdisciplinary teams to provide comprehensive daily care. Your responsibilities will include administering prescribed medications and treatments with accuracy and timeliness, monitoring vital signs, assessing changes in residents’ conditions, and updating care plans in collaboration with the nursing team. You’ll perform wound care, assist with activities of daily living, support fall prevention and mobility, and implement infection control and safety protocols. Documentation will be precise and timely, ensuring continuity of care for residents and transparent communication with families. You’ll serve as a patient advocate, offering reassurance during difficult days and celebrating improvements with residents and their loved ones. This role provides opportunities to broaden expertise in geriatric nursing, chronic disease management, palliative and end-of-life care, and care coordination, with potential pathways toward leadership roles such as charge nurse or preceptorship for new staff. The position emphasizes ongoing learning, competency development, and the chance to refine clinical judgment in a supportive, team-focused environment.
Our compensation and benefits are designed to recognize your expertise and reliability. Expect a competitive weekly pay range of $1,077 to $1,131, with guaranteed hours of 36 per week, and a structure that supports both stability and earning potential. The package may include a sign-on bonus and housing assistance, easing relocation and daily living while you focus on patient care. We also provide extension opportunities for successful travelers who demonstrate commitment and a strong fit with facility needs, enabling you to continue delivering high-quality care in new settings while expanding your professional network. The hours, pay rates, and assignment length are estimates and will be confirmed during the hiring process. Our travel program emphasizes flexible scheduling, respectful workloads, and clear expectations, with a dedicated support team to help you navigate any scheduling changes, credentialing needs, or on-site challenges.
A cornerstone of our program is unwavering support. You will never travel alone: you’ll have access to 24/7 support from a dedicated team that assists with onboarding, scheduling, credentialing assistance, and real-time problem resolution. This ongoing assistance ensures you can focus on delivering compassionate care, knowing experienced professionals are ready to help with any issue that arises on the road or in a new facility. The company prioritizes clear communication, proactive planning, and responsive service to minimize stress and maximize your effectiveness on assignment.
